Community Spotlight with Mike Greenberg

Student, Filmmaker. Gaithersburg, Maryland, United States.

#FlashbackFriday #FBF  Do you remember our Community Spotlight with Mike Greenberg?

Mike Greenberg found interest in film and video through skateboarding in middle school, getting involved in his school and surrounding community. He spent three periods a day
at a graphic design program that opened his eyes to general aesthetics. Currently, he is enrolled at George Mason University majoring in Film and Video studies.

After working at MVI Post, gaining more experience in production and post, Mike started his own company, Konspiracy Studios last year, as a means of expanding creative work. “Konspiracy has been a journey and changed with my interests. At the start I was primarily working web, yet recently, I’ve found much more demand for HDV production and Final Cut Editing.” Having shifted from wedding videography towards the music industry, Mike is in the process of expanding into the corporate scene. He’s finishing up editing a short mini-mentary for “The Weepies” for the new album. This month he has several PSA’s that he is editing for a national environmental organization. Later this fall, he will be editing five commercials.

Indie filmmaking tip:
When shooting with multiple cameras that are in conditions where they can’t be linked to receive timecode, try resetting the cameras timecode to a value of your choice, for example, 01:00:00:00, and then simultaneously selecting “Free Run” instead of “Rec Run” on each camera. You will have virtually the same timecode. Even if one camera stops recording and the other doesn’t. Just remember not to turn the camera off or plan to re-sync if you have to change batteries.
